Endoscopic Flexor Hallucis Longus Tendon Transfer for the Treatment of Chronic Achilles Tendon Defects.
JBJS Essent Surg Tech
January 2025
The Ohio State University College of Medicine, Columbus, Ohio.
Background: An all-inside endoscopic flexor hallucis longus (FHL) tendon transfer is indicated for the treatment of chronic, full-thickness Achilles tendon defects. The aim of this procedure is to restore function of the gastrocnemius-soleus complex while avoiding the wound complications associated with open procedures.
Description: This procedure can be performed through 2 endoscopic portals, a posteromedial portal (the working portal) and a posterolateral portal (the visualization portal).
Acute effects of whole-body vibration on ankle motion smoothness in individuals with chronic ankle instability.
J Bodyw Mov Ther

Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences, Hokuriku University, Kanazawa, Japan.
Background: High ankle motion smoothness involves small acceleration or deceleration, which is related to ankle stability. Interventions for ankle motion smoothness are important to reduce the progression of chronic ankle instability (CAI) symptoms and prevent recurrent ankle sprains. Training using whole-body vibration (WBV) may easily and effectively improve ankle motion smoothness; however, its effects have not yet been investigated.

Article Synopsis
- - Leprosy is a chronic infectious disease that affects peripheral nerves, leading to pain and decreased sensitivity, which can impair balance; measures such as center of pressure (COP) oscillations are important for evaluating balance in patients.
- - The study aimed to validate the use of inertial sensors for assessing balance in leprosy patients by comparing the results to those obtained from a force platform.
- - Results showed significant differences in balance parameters between leprosy patients and healthy controls, with the inertial sensors confirming the findings from the force platform, indicating their potential as a portable balance assessment tool.
Drug Reaction with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms (DRESS) Syndrome with Multiple Drugs (Leflunomide and Cefuroxime): A Case Report.
Curr Drug Saf
September 2024
Department of Pharmacognosy, Goa College of Pharmacy, Government of Goa, Panaji, Goa.
Article Synopsis
- Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs) can occur even when medications are taken correctly, with DRESS syndrome being a severe type that affects multiple organ systems and requires quick diagnosis and withdrawal of the offending drug to improve outcomes.
- A case study of a 42-year-old woman highlights DRESS syndrome development after taking leflunomide, leading to serious symptoms including fever, skin rash, and liver injury, confirmed as a "definite" ADR.
- The study emphasizes that both leflunomide and cefuroxime can trigger DRESS syndrome, underscoring the need for careful monitoring of these medications and proper reporting of adverse reactions.
Muscle Mitochondrial Capacity Is Impaired Immediately Following Maximal Exercise.
Med Sci Sports Exerc
January 2025
Department of Kinesiology, University of Georgia, Athens, GA.
Purpose: This study measured the time course mV̇O 2 max following both maximal and submaximal exercise.
Methods: Healthy male and female participants were tested ( n = 12 maximal and n = 8 submaximal exercise). A NIRS device was placed on the left medial gastrocnemius.
